00:00can brandon marsh keep this up can he keep hitting over 300 well over 300 for the remainder of this
00:06season well he's done it now for over a calendar year and you know if you really look at what
00:13he
00:13was before and what he is now it's obvious this is a guy who's gone to work he's made himself
00:19a
00:19better hitter contact rate is up the strikeout rate tells you a lot it's almost half of what
00:27it was when he first got here half um stance not as spread out swing more level um less pull
00:35happy
00:36more line drive ground ball type hitter and it's working for him i think the key to this bill is
00:45let's see if it leads to more playing time against left-handers it seems like don maddenley wants to
00:49do that uh and let's see if it leads to more success than he's ever had against left-handers
00:55at any point at any level since rookie ball this year it's only 31 plate appearances against left
01:03handed hitters but 286 average that'll work that's almost 100 points higher than it was against
01:10left-handers the previous two years so i see a guy who's made meaningful changes but it's hard to hit
01:18it's never been harder to hit and the lead will adjust to him it it'll be really fascinating to
01:24see how this year plays out
